Explanation:

Naturalism is the literary method of writing about what the real thing is. In other words, we can also say that it is an extreme form of realism, with the natural elements governing the course of action of the work. The characters of the individual(s) is governed rather by the environment, instead of vice versa.

Stephen Crane's short story "An Episode of War" tells the story of how one lieutenant got hit by a bullet and this led to his handicapped physical being. The story of how he lost his arm may have been a simple story, for he himself didn't even think that it was so serious the time he was hit by the bullet. But, he did end up losing his arm. Crane details the story through the act of the situation, the war scene and the hospital scene which is natural in itself, a very common but real situation. By portraying the life/ lives of the people in the war zone, Crane's short story is a perfect example of the genre of naturalism.
